Did OTT just start this year?  It's had some great stuff this season.  Really interesting.   waytogo

nope.  but he/they (obviously) used the crap AMA situation this year as a reason to improve the site and coverage.  doing a great job.

no...the best was Toseland's whale not work so good for him....or Colin's outright "what a load of crap"...of course, I just think Colin is a great real personality who speaks his mind and that's why that was even funnier, because it was possibly unscripted ( okay, maybe not).

Jonathan Green talks to Ben after Nurburgring:

http://link.brightcove.com/services/player/bcpid271552961?bctid=38013340001


"18 points is nothing in this series  .... but the next three tracks i know... "      Smiley

and he sorta clarifies "foresees".  but not completely.

Those in-depth interviews (even the Mladin ones that ducpainter hates) are always really interesting for all the tech tidbits.  I love OTT.

skype gets confused if you say too much at once.  you kinda need to speak like you're having an IM convo.

and yeah.. i always love the fact that Dave asks seemingly simple questions that uncover stuff you otherwise don't hear about.  Very interesting stuff, at that.

 waytogo that they're gonna do this after every round!

it, along with other video conferencing apps, are just susceptible to network congestion/delays. unless you have some decent end-to-end QoS, you're really not going to be able to work around that.

what i find interesting is that it almost always catches the whole conversation and plays it back quickly in order to catch up.
